Clemson linebacker Trenton Simpson may have been one of the best values of the NFL draft when he was taken by the Washington Commanders in the third round by the Baltimore Ravens.
NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah believes the Ravens are a great team for the Tiger to start his professional career.
“They know something about linebackers in that organization,” Jeremiah said on the NFL network. “I am excited that he lands with the Baltimore Ravens. They will know how to use his versatile skillset.”
Jeremiah has some ideas on how to best use Simpson’s skillset.
“The range he possesses, the running ability. You are hoping he is going to develop into a Devin White type playmaker at the second level. The range you see, the speed is legit, low 4.4. You can blitz him off the edge. He closes space immediately. I thought when you free him up and get him outside the box a little bit he can see better.
